It is a beautiful campground, well maintained, organized and clean. I arrived during the night and it was very easy to find my site, it was close to the Virgin River and it was very nice to hear the sound of the water. The bathrooms were super clean. I stayed only one night the Wednesday before Thanksgiving and it was cold, but bearable. It wasn't too crowded, even without a reservation it was possible to find a spot, but I imagine it must have been crowded on the weekend.

Our site looked very nice and well kept. We had standard tent stakes and had a difficut time pounding them in. We did end up putting big rocks on all four corners. We only use the tent to hold coolers and clothes so it didn't need to be perfect. It gets super windy in the early morning, so tents should be well anchored and weighed down. Our site was a perfect location for walking to the visitors center, the busses and the pedestrian bridge/town. If you need wood or ice, there is a store across the pedestrian bridge. Just bring your park pass or you'll have to pay to reenter the park. The one negative thing we were not prepared for was the roaches. Our first evening, after dark, we went to wash our dishes and there were roaches in and around the sink. They were also in the bathrooms and our campsite. We took extra care to keep our tent and vehicle closed tight.

Camping in Zion at Watchman Campground is probably as close to being on an alien world as I've been. The way the moon comes around the Mountains at night and sunrise hits them in the morning really have to be seen to be believed. Amazing. The campsite was immaculate and fastidiously cared for. I'm definitely going back!

We loved the proximity to all the Zion Adventures.

Our campsite was immaculate and in such a gorgeous setting with cliff and Mountain View’s all around. The sites have nice natural growth bushes and trees to provide some privacy. The restroom was clean. And we were grateful that there was still water available in the campground, even though we were prepared for it to have been turned off already due to near freezing temps (early December).

Wonderful level site along the river. The deer visited in the evening!

This campground really needs a better reservation system. So unlike the other National Parks.

Great location. Very close to the visitor center and trailheads. An RV dump station is easily accessible free of charge. The campground is spacious and level. We had no problem backing in. We enjoyed our two-night stay here.

Loop A was clean, had good spacing from our neighbors, and had a great location to anything we needed (Springdale, shuttle, and two hiking trails within campground).
